Some
practical guidance of the proceedings of the sessions.
Each paper presentation is scheduled to be 25
minutes. Session rooms will be equipped with a computer with
internet connection and Window 7 package as well as microphones. Please
download your PowerPoint-presentation in memory stick at home and download it
onto the session room computer desktop well before your session. Our workshop
assistants will help you with this and make sure that all presentations have
been downloaded before session start. We do not recommend the use of your own
laptop as this will help the sessions to run more fluently. Session chair has
important responsibility to follow the clock and warn if the time is running
out.
After the paper presentation the assigned discussant has his/her turn to point
out comments and suggestions. Discussant has eight minutes
to do this. Here are some key points. Briefly summarize the
contribution in the paper, and relate it to the state of the research in the
area. You can do this by highlighting key ideas, identifying key themes across
the papers, posing challenging questions, and suggesting important directions
for future work. Read the paper several times and make notes about strengths
and weaknesses. Critically analyze what the author(s) has (have) done and raise
questions about assumptions, methods and interpretation of findings, but
emphasize the constructive in your comments: advance the paper by providing new
ideas or perspectives to improve the paper. Feedback about minor or idiosyncratic
issues can be given to the author(s) in writing. Discussant can give his/her
presentation also as PowerPoint-slides.
After discussant's presentation there is seven
minutes for general discussion.
